ency Viscount Willingdon, the ches 
Governor-General of Canada. Unique 
among mountain ehurches and unique, 
indeed, among the churches of Cana» 
da, is the Church of St. Mary and St, 
George. The building, with its fure 
nishings, was the gift of a lady from 
Pngland who visited Jasper one sum- 
mer and who was so much impressed 
by the beauty of the surroundings that 
she resolved that she should erect her 
loving memorial to the son who was 
killed in the war. Through solicitors 
she made the arrangements, her name 
never appeared; no.one in Jasper 
knows who she is. -The son whose 
testament, taken out of his pocket 
when! his body was carried in from 
No Man’s Land, is written under the 
corner stone, is to Jasper an Unknown 
Soldier. 

Built of stone and stucco, with a 
tiled roof, raftered within, the build- 
ing stands in beauty and simplicity, 
a true memorial. The oak panelling 
to the right and left of the altar was 
the gift of the Misses Shawcross of 
Engiand, in memory of their mother; 
the processional cross, a piece of 
beautiful craftsmanship in hand- 
beaten copper, the work of Omar 
Ramsden of London, England, was 
presented by Mrs. E. Holland of Wor- 
cester, England; the font from the 
old church was the gift of the 
Women’s Auxiliary; and the ewer was 
given by Mr. and Mrs. W. Brydon, 
members of the congregation, in mem- 
ory of their son., The bell which sum- 
mons the people to worship was the 
gift of Lord Willingdon. Graven on 
it are the words: “O give unto the 
Lord the honour due unto His name.” 
It is a church of gifts. The Bible and 
the prayer bok, too, are gifts and 
make contact with older history. ‘For 
his kind and tnemitting labors dur- 
ing the cholera epidemic of 1884-49” 
the parishioners of Offchurch present- 
ed the books to their rector, Rev. 
James Riddell. They were given to 
the Archbishop’s Western Canada 
Fund and in the end they found their 
way to Jasper. 


OBITUARY 


EDITH ELSIE ABERNETHY 


The death took place last week of 
little Edith Elsie Abernethy, at the 
age of eight months. The funeral ser- 
vice was held at the Wainwright 
cemetery on Thursday afternoon last, 
Rev. W. S. Brooker, pastor of St. 
Andrew’s (Pres.) church having 
charge. McLeod’s parlors handled the 
arrangements. 


Take Canadian Law | 
To Eskimo Natives 


Court Flies 1300 Miles To Hear Mur- 
der Charge From Rim of Arctic 


Three years ago one Ahigiak, a na- 
tive of King William Island in Cana- 
da’s extreme North, shot and killed 
one Aniruak, a fellow-Eskimo. Ahigi- 


ak accused Aniruak of stealing the; 


affections of his wife. 

Royal Canadian Mounted Police 
heard of the affair and laid charges 
against Ahigiak. They did not arrest 
him because he could not escape, and 
there was no jail in which to confine 
him, so he lived peacefully with his 
wife in the family igloo until the 
spring of the present year when pol- 
ice took the Eskimo 800 miles to the 
settlement of Coppermine. 

Presently to Coppermine there tra- 
velled by airplane over 1300 miles of 
the Arctic’s fringe Magistrate J. 
Dougias, who has judicial authority 
over the Northwest Territories, and 
lawyers for the Crown and defence. 
Ahigiak went on trial with all due 
ceremony; evidence was taken 
through an interpreter; he was cqn- 


victed of manslaughter by a jury of 
six prospectors and traders and was 


sentenced to five years’ imprisonment. 
Curious Eskimos followed proceed- 


ings.with interest, and seemed at a 
loss to account for the concern of 
white officials with a tribal killing 


three years old.

Canadian “Quints” 
Wards of the State 


TORONTO-—Canada’s most famous 
persons—the five children born May 
28th to Mr. and Mrs. Ovila Dionne of 
Northern Qntario—now are under of- 
ficial protection of the province of On- 
ario. A court order appointing a 
board of five guardians was sought 
and obtained by the government as 
the most effective means of circum- 
venting the efforts of Chicago pro- 
moters who wanted to exhibit them 
at the World’s Fair in that city and 
who held a contract signed by the 
father of the quintuplets. 

Heading the board of guardians is 
Dr. A. R. Dafoe, the country doctor 
whose ‘fame now is _ world-wide 
through the skill and success with 
which he has cared for his celebrated 
patients, and Oliver Dionne, the 
babies’ grandfather, represents the 
family. 

As the babies—called “world fig- 
urea” in the judgment of a Chicago 
court—approached the end of their 
third month and a joint weight of 
25 pounds, erection was started of 4 
modern brick dwelling where every 
facility will be provided for their 
care, It is to be called ‘The Dafoe 
Hospital for the Dionne Quintuplets,” 
and is being built with funds provided 
by the Canadian Red Cross, the On- 
tario Government and private sources. 

Yvonne and Annette continue heavi- 
est of the infants, and by mid-Augusv 
were close to six pounds each. Cecile 
was nearing five pounds and Emilie 
had passed four. Marie, smallest of 
the five, had to receive radium treat- 
ment for a tumor on her left hip, but 
was overcoming the handicap and ap- 
proaching four pounds.

Mr. E. Thomas left at the week end

T pstabeabb wits: ‘thus made Satur- 
day of the amendment made last ses- 
sion to the Royal Canadian Mounted 
Police Act, putting its provisions into 
force on October 1. 

At present R.C:‘M.P. N.C.O’s, and 
officers get pensions for long service 
and on retirement but the new plan 
provides annuities for their wives and 
children. The men will contribute five 
per cent. of their pay to a fund for 
this purpose. Under present condi- 
tions there is no provision for the wife 
and family when a man leaves the 
force.

“Monsieur le Bebe” & 


Maurice Chevalier Here 


The indefatigable Maurice Cheval- 
ier, whose light touch and gay humor 
is definitely infectious, has with him 
in “A Bedtime Story” (a Paramount 
comedy-drama which shows at the 
Elite this week) a new leading sup- 
porter. 

This young and handsome player is 
practically a guarantee of feminine 
approval of the picture. His name is 
Baby Leroy. Chevalier attractively 
calls him “Monsieur le Bebe,’ and 
without the slightest histrionic effort 
one-year-old “‘Monsieur le Bebe” be- 
comes the screen’s most appealing in- 
fant. One can almost hear the echoes 
of the murmuring of adoration from 
the feminine contingent of the audi- 
ence, and whether the men admit it or 
not, they will get a great kick out 
of baby. 

Maurice is still the gay and debon- 
air man-about-town in Paris, this 
time wealthy and with several at- 
tractive girls ‘“‘on the string.’’ Arriv- 
ing in Paris, with song and laughter, 
stopping on the way home to greet 
his ‘friends’ and make dates, the 
chauffeur finds a foundling baby in the 
car among the luggage. Maurice for- 
gets his dates, and laughable and en- 


tertaining sequences follow as he and

The talking book, one of ‘the latest 
sensations in the world of the blind is 
being demonstrated at the Exhibit of 
the Canadian National Institute for 
the Blind in the Electrical and Engin- 


eering Building at the Canadian Na- 


tional Exhibition, Toronto. This year, 
for the first time, all the activities in 
which blind persons are engaged are 
being carried out on the premises, and 
every phase of the Institute’s Canada- 
wide programme is included. 

The National Library of the Insti- 
tute which contains over 17,500 vol- 
umes is conducting a booth where 
Braille books are on view, and a 
Braille typewriter operated. The cur- 
rent issue of the monthly Braille mag- 
azine “The Courier” sent out by the 
National Library to all parts of Cana- 
is being produced, showing the 
process of Braille printing, followed 
by the stitching of leaves together. 

Thirty-one blind persons are pre- 
demonstrating home handi- 
crafts, another turning out attractive 
dresses and aprons on one of the 
power driven machines used in the 
garment factories of the Institute lo- 
cated in Toronto and Winnipeg. 


Rubber door mats made from old 
automobile tires are being manufac- 
tured in the booth representing the 
Western Division of the Institute 
(British Columbia and Alberta) and 
netting is one of the occupations 
found in the booth of the Newfound- 
land Division. In between these two 
extremities comes the Central West- 
ern Division (Saskatchewan and 
Manitoba) where a blind man is can- 
ing chairs, next a blind girl from the 
Quebec Division typing letters on a 
standard typewriter taking her dicta- 
tion from the dictaphone, and a blind 
man in the Maritime Division booth 
(New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and 
Prince Edward Island) demonstrating 
the manufacture of willow signal 
cones used by the Dominion Meteoro- 
logical Départment for weather sig- 
nalling on the sea coast. 

The Industrial Placement Depart- 


‘|}Mment arranged for a blind man em- 


ployed in industry by a well-known 
sporting goods company to carry on 
with his regular job of stringing ten- 
nis racquets, another to fit spokes 
in joy cycle wheels, while a blind em- 
ployee in.one of the Motor Car Com- 
panies is demonstrating his job of 
stuffing cushions for automobiles and 
assembling control handles for car 
windows. 

Games used by the blind such as 
Braille playing cards, checkers, etc., 
are on display as well as Braille 
watches and other appliances. 

Institute factory work including 
the process of manufacturing Blind- 
craft brooms is fully demonstrated 
with one blind man sorting broom 
corn, another winding brooms and a 
third sewing and clipping them. Wick- 
er furniture is being made and ser- 
viceable baskets take shape while they 
are being watched. 

Members of the Toronto Women’s 
Auxiliary to the Canadian National 
Institute for the Blind are conducting 
a special branch of their Blind Craft 
Shop and have also an Information 
Booth. 


Photo-ElectricCell Traps 
Robber in Canadian Mine 


VANCOUVER—The photo-electric 
cell, one of the most amazing inveu- 
tions of science, saved from robbery 
the Pioneer gold mine and gave an 
amazing demonstration of its useful- 
ness in the protection of treasure. 

A burglar had cut his way througn 
the metal walls of the small room in 
the Pioneer mine where the molten 
gold is poured into bricks for shlp- 
ment to the mint at Ottawa. As the 
robber entered the room his shadow 
fell across the photo-electric cell with 
which the room is equipped, and in- 
stantly—without warning the mar- 
auder—a dozen alarm bells rang in 
the community. 

Dr. Howard James, superintendent 
of the mine, heard the bells, rushed 
to the premises, found the robber 
seeking the gold bullion with a flash- 
\light. They fought in the darkness, 
and just as help arrived the robber 
broke away and escaped —but with- 


his valet try to quiet its crying, put 
it to bed. Helen Twelvetrees, a new 
leading player for Chevalier, responds 
to a call for a nurse on a long chance, 
and on her pleading, Maurice engages 
her. Complications follow when 
Maurice arrives at the chateau of his 
fiancee, and there is danger of los- 
ing the baby. The skies clear rapidly, 
and the three are left together. 

The music is tuneful, and Maurice 
renders the lyrics in his accustomed 
appealing style. Lightly, romantically, 
amusingly entertaining, 


Story” is more than pleasant.

out any gold. 

Mining engineers say the photo- 
electric cell is the perfect guardian of 
treasure. A shadow; a breath, the 
drop of a hair, the movement of a lit- 
tle finger in the room equipped with 
it, set up radio vibrations which 
throw the switch and sound the burg- 


far alarms. 


Having spent a couple of weeks vis- 
iting friends in town, Mrs. Geo. Petrie, 
who formerly resided here, left on

Twenty-two years ago in the Sum- 
mer: of 1912, I followed a portérhouse 
steak from the local market back to 
the cattle ranch. I wanted to find out, 
for one of the big magazines, why we 
were paying 32 cents a pound for the 
same cut that a few years before had 
sold for fifteen cents. I found out. I 
went to the Chicago stockyards and 
talked with the packers and com- 
mission men. Then I went up into 
North Dakota to interview an old 
rancher who had systematically kept 
track of his costs and what he had 
got for each steer he had sold for 
thirty years. And I predicted then 
that we would never again buy porter- 
house as cheap as 32 cents. ,

wheat farmers were fencing in the

to buy, for the Government has now 
undertaken to buy all the silver offer- 
ed at 50 cents an ounce. 

My prediction of 1931 was based 
upon the realization that the price 
of silver was out ofall proportion 
to the prices of everything else. For 
forty years the average price of silver 
was above sixty cents an ounce. I had 
no expectation in 1931 that our Gov- 
ernment would take the lead in re- 
storing’ silver to its old monetary sta- 
tus, but rather believed that there 
would be some international agree- 
ment to do so. 

Now silver is back where it was, 
until a little more than a hundred 
years ago, from the beginning of hu- 
man commerce— a monetary metal 
second only to gold the world over. 
Indeed, silver was the principal stand- 
ard of money value up to about the 
time of the Revolution. ‘What makes 
it important to remonetize it is that 
it is the basis of the money of about 
half the world’s population, which has 
been out of line with the rest of the 
world’s money for the past seven 


years, interfering seriously with 
world trade.

His revealed Word, which is the Bible, 
otherwise called Holy Scriptures. Je- 
hovah God long ago/ caused faithful 
men to write the Bible at His dicta- 
tion, and this divine record is made 
for the purpose of. giving man neéded 
information. The Bible is truth, and 
for centuries has successfully resisted 
all efforts to discredit it. 

All the human race are the off- 
spring of one man, whose name was 
Adam and who was created by Je- 
hovah God a perfect man. That man 
disobeyed Jehovah and was sentenced 
‘to death, after which all of his chil- 
dren were born; and for that reason 
all the human race by inheritance are 
sinners. The Scriptures truly declare 
that Jehovah God is love, which 
means that He is unselfish and that 
He does good unto all creatures with- 
out any gain to himself... Every act 
of Jehovah is prompted by love or un- 
selfishness; hence He is wholly devoted 
to righteousness. It is His will that 
His creatures be wholly devoted to 
‘righteousness. He has provided the 
means for all men to gain a know- 
ledge of the truth in order that they 
may learn the way of righteousness 
and live for ever in happiness. We 
have now come to the time when men 
are given greater opportunities than 
ever before to learn the ways of 
righteousness and life. 

Jehovah God is the giver of life; 
hence it is properly said of Him He is 
the fountain of life. His beloved Son 
is Christ Jesus, whose position in the 
universe is next to that of Jehovah. 
The purpose of Jehovah is to give 
life to obedient men by and through 
the ministration of Christ Jesus when 
such men are fully obedient to Him. 
For this reason Jesus said of Jehovah 
and for the benefit of men: “This is 
life eternal, that they might know 
thee the only true God, and Jesus 
Christ, whom thou hast sent.” (John 
17:3) No man can get everlasting life 
without knowing Jehovah and obeying 
Him. 

A meek person is a teachable per- 
son, that is to say, a person who is 
willing to be taught. Jehovah's pro- 
mise to man is that He will teach the 
meek in the way that he should go; 
hence if a man seeks knowledge, earn- 
estly desiring the same, God will re- 
ward his efforts. Jehovah has now 
brought to pass conditions .in the 
world that make it possible for man 
to understand His name and His pur- 
pose, and for this reason He has sup- 
plied the means for understanding. 

Jehovah commands that all men 
shall love Him with a pure heart and 
must be obedient to His command- 
ments in order to prove their love for 
Him. Such is not a selfish command, 
but is entirely unselfish and for the

and commandments of Jehovah are 
for man’s good;- and the more fully 
we understand them and obey them, 
the more we love Jehovah. That which 
is of greatést importance to man is 
to gain a knowledge of Jehovah as set 


forth in the Bible. “The law of the 
Lord is perfect, converting the soul: 
the testimony of the Lord is sure, 
making wise the simple.’’—Psalm 19: 
, 

Since God created the first man per- 
fect, and all men are the offspring of 
that first man, why is there so much 
sickness, distress and sorrow . and 
death amongst the human race? Is 
Jehovah responsible for all this sor- 
row and suffering amongst men, in- 
cluding death? Jehovah is not respon- 
sible at all therefor. The Bible answer 
to the question as to why these dis- 
agreeable things have come to pass 
will be answered in another speech 
called ‘‘Rebellion.” 


ROSA RUGOSA AND ITS HYBRIDS 


Rosa Rugosa is a rapid, thrifty 
grower and is most decidedly a shrub 
for beautifying the grounds of west- 
ern homes. It is particularly useful 
in situations where ordinary roses 
might be killed by. severe win- 
ters. In fact, it has proved itself 
quite winter hardy and can be trusted 
to look after itself more than can 
most roses. It is also very resistant 
to most of the rose diseases. 


If the bush becomes too large and 
scrubby it can bé cut back ruthlessly 
close to the ground and will respond 
with clean new growth. 

The foliage is a shiny dark green 
and is held crisply erect. In the typi- 
cal form, the flowers are dark 
magenta, single, and very large, often 
reaching four or five inches in di- 
ameter. The flowers are borne prac- 
tically throughout the summer and are 
succeeded by brilliant fruits which 
gleam like enamelled beads amongst 
the dark foliage. After the ffirst fall 
frost, the leaves, which stay for a 
comparatively long time on the bush, 
also turn color and give added beauty 
by finishing out the season in glowing

EARLY TOPPING OF TURNIPS 


The practice of “topping” turnips 
some weeks before the date of pull- 
ing, in order to use. the leaves while 
still green in the, feeding of livestock, 
has been common in certain parts of 
the Dominion, and the question wheth- 
er it is an economical operation or not 
has been settled by practical demon- 
strations by the Dominion Department 
of Agriculture. The data obtained 
showed that turnips from the non- 
topped crops had the higher food 
value. 
satisfactory avidence of the marked 
growth of the untopped crop during 
the latter weeks of the season, 
leaves during this period continuing 
to function as lungs and stomach, re- 
sulting in a heavier yield. The prac- 
tice of topping the crop three. weeks 
or a month prior to the date of pull- 
ing has been shown to result in a 
lower yield per acre of nutrients, and 
is therefore non-economic. 


GREEN TOMATO PICKLE 


To make tomato pickle take 4 
quarts of green tomatoes, 4 small on- 
ions, and 4 green peppers. Slice the 
tomatoes and onions, sprinkle with % 
cup of salt and leave overnight in a 
crock. The next morning drain off 
the brine. Put in a preserving kettle 
one quart of vinegar, one level tea- 
spoon each of black pepper, mustard 
seed, celery seed, cloves, allspice and 
cinnamon, and three-quarter cup of 
sugar. Bring to a boil and add the 
prepared tomatoes, onions and pepper; 
cook slowly for thirty.minutes, fill the 
jars and seal them.

Ha! The oldest topic on earth... 
Why talk about that this morning’ 
Well,—has it ceased to be important 
—or interesting? 

One thing—our good editor, know-

thing I want to, and say it in the way 
I am in the habit of doing. 

The fact is, dear young man and 
young woman, there is no more seri- 
ous topic in this world today—than 
Marriage .... Nor is there a sacred, 
heaven-born privilege that has been 
more violated by errant humanity. 
Denounce the moralist as “old fogy”, 
and I'll refer you to Reno and Holly- 
wood! 

The chief contract for human be- 
ings is the marriage contract. Notu- 
ing more sacred belongs to earth. I 
have nothing but contempt for those 
who wilfully trample this beautiful 
arrangement in the swinish muck of

commercialism and lust. And—must 
I say it? too often the press refers 
to marriage and divorce and public 
license as—a joke! 


lf you contemplate marriage as you 
should—as a sacred institution, you 
are a good man or a good woman; the 
minute you enter the married state 
with sinister designs, your pedestal as 
an angel is crumbling, tottering, with 
the whirlpool of tears and sorrow at 
its base! 

Upon the sanctity of the marriage- 
vows, rests the security of this repub- 
lic. When woman is_prostituted— 
dragged down to the old testament 
level—man will become degenerated 
into the beast he was then, with his 
concubines and his harems and his 
queens selected for their fleshly at-

like history to repeat itself? Noy 
Then, for heaven and humanity’s sake,

THE HORSE PRICE oyOLE 


When the purchasing power of any 
kind of livestock is calculated for a 
long series of years, it is found that 
there are fairly definite requrring 
cycles of purchasing power th «a 
reasonable degree of periodicity, that 
is, in length of timing from peak to 
peak or trough to trough jof the 
waves. According to Prof B.C. 
Hope of the University of tche- 
wan, the decline in horse pricep; con- 
trary to general opinion, was not due 
to the increase in the use of tractors, 
but rather to the relatively high price 
for horses prevailing from 1910 to 
1915. The tractor has not eliminatea 
the price cycle of horses, it has only 
modified it. The recent low period of 
the horse cycle has been rather long- 
er than usual because the country was 
becoming adjusted to a permanently 
smaller number of horses. The horse 
cycle has definitely turned. Good 
work horses are again becoming 
scarce and it will be some years be- 
fore breeders can keep up with the 
demand. Immediately a little more 
money flows into the hands gf farm- 
ers, a sharp rise is to be expected in 
horse prices. If the general com- 
modity price level should continue to 
rise, horse prices will rise faster. The 
purchasing power of. horses. should 
continue to rise until about the year 
1937. The return of tractors to more 
general use for field work will not 
change this situation.

vinces to “import” from 25,000. to 
50,000 men for the harvest season. 
These came largely from: Eastern 
Canada, but British Columbia contri- 
buted several thousand annually and 
on occasion men came from the 
British Isles and the United States. 
Besides the objective of supplying 
harvest help there was that of col- 
onization and land settlement in the 
movement. There has been no assist- 
ed movement to the Prairie Provinces 
since 1929. Some people have assum- 
ed that the use of combines is entirely 
responsible for this change, but, 
while it must be admitted that they 
have caused a reduction in the de- 
mand, it is probable that the more 
important reason is an increase im 
the supply of labour available locally. 


METHODS OF HOME CANNING 


One of the principal methods of 
home canning is the one-perjod cold- 
pack. It is so called because; the un- 
‘cooked or partly cooked food is pack- 
ed into a jar and covered with some 
liquid, such as syrup or water, and 
both jar and its contents are heated: 


by which all new varieties are meas- 
ured as they bid for a place on the 
western wheat fields.

simultaneously by botling water or 
steam. ‘This method may bé used for 
all fruits and vegetables, and is re- 
commended for home use by the Do- 
minion Department of Agriculture in 
bulletin dealing with the various| 
methods of preserving fruits and veg- 
etables in the home. 
cold-pack is a very simple process 
and completely sterilizes, inasmuch as 
the product is placed in sterilized jar» 
which are closed during. the cooking 
process. In this way the organisms 
in the pack are killed and access by 
any bacteria from the air and other 
outside sources is rendered impossible. 
The appearance of the finished pro- 
duct is superior, as each berry or slice 
remains intact. There is no crushing, 
the flavor, color and texture retaining 
their natural condition.

THE PRESENT STATUS 


OF MARQUIS WHEAT 


Marquis wheat is still the standard 
Introduced a- 


markably short time usurped first 
place among the spring ™* varieties 
grown both in Canada and the North- 
western States. While the original 
introductidn was not quite as uniform 
in type as one might wish, the pre- 
vailing type which characterized the 
variety was essentially similar to the 
genuine Marquis we have today. 

Unfortunately some ten years ago 
the Marquis of certain growers be- 
came rather badly contaminated with 
certain old types commonly found in 
the late-maturing Red Fife variety, 
with the result that the variety lost 
caste in some quarters and was 
thought to be degenerating. Fortun- 
ately the Canadian Seed Growers’ As- 
sociation with governmental aid, came 
to realize what was happening and 
very soon made available new stocks 
possessing a high degree of purity. 
These are being propagated rapidly 
and as a result this highly prized 
variety will soon regain the high es- 
teem to which it is entitled. 

In growing tests, made during the 
last three years, of approximately 
12,000 samples of wheat collected 
from farmers’ wagons at western ele- 
vators,’/it Was found that many; farm- 
ers were still growing this 6ld jmix- 
ture of late Fife types and the earlier 
maturing Marquis. Others, it was 
learned, had dropped this wheat 
which they believed to be Marquis 
and had adopted such varieties as 
Garnet and Reward, but they would 
not likely have made the change had 
they had the genuine article.

DIABETES 


The part played by heredity and ov- 
erweight in the occurrence of diabetes 
has been recognized for many years. 
In more recent years, through the 
combined use of insulin, diet and ex- 
ercise, the life of the diabetic has 
been raised to a normal level. With 
this wonderful advance in treatment 
has come the pressing necessity ot 
discovering diabetes early in order 
that cases may be placed under pco- 
per treatment before complications 
develop. 

Most of our readers are familiar 


with the importance of discovering 
tuberculosis early, and how unsuspect- 
ed cases are looked for in the families

The increased prevalence of diabetes 
in women over forty, as compared 
with men of the same age, may have 
some relationship to the introduction 
of labour-saving devices into the 
home. 

In so far as the prevention of dia- 
betes is concerned, those with a dia- 
betic history should not marry into 

,a& family with the same history. The 
children of such a union are seriously 
handicapped as regards diabetes. Ov-

a family history of diabetes should a- 
void an increase in their girth, and 
they should be examined periodically 
by their physician to allow for early 
detection if the disease should de- 
velop.

selected points througout the country.

During the past month there have 
been checked up in the above manner 
some 15,000 samples of wheat secured 
from farmers at 660 points in the 
West. This work was done at 5u 
central points termed “District Plots.” 

The classification of these plots, 
each of which actually represents a 
field of wheat, indicates that 23 per 
cent were entitled to be included in 
the ‘‘A’’ class, while 36 per cent be- 
ing reasonably good were classed as 
“B", and 41 per cent. were classed 
as “C”. 

From the above it would seem fair 


ewes $1) to conclude that insofar as concerns 


the 660 districts surveyed, more than 
41 per cent. of the farmers are not u»- 
ing seed of as desirable a type as they 
might. An interesting feature of this 
investigation is that practically every 
one of the elevator districts from 
which these samples were secured has 
at least some farmers who are grow- 
ing excellent stock but that this 
knowledge unfortunately is not very 
widely known—indeed in many cases 
the farmer himself growing ‘‘A’’ ma- 
terial was unaware of its good qual- 
ity. 

Another interesting discovery has 
been that a very large percentage of 
the “A” lots have traced back direct- 
ly to Registered seed. Some of these 
lots it was found, had been obtained 
as Registered seed several years ago 
but by reason of the inherent purity 
of this class of seed had retained a 
high degree of purity throughout the 
years. This incidenfally is one of the 
best arguments that might be pre- 
sented in favor of the use of seed 
of high pedigree. ” 

One of the worthwhile developments 
of this undertaking is going to be that 
numerous districts will be developed 
in which practically all farmers will 
be growing the same variety thereby 
providing sources of seed from which 
large quantities of relatively pure ma- 
terial may be drawn when required 
for relief or other purposes. 

The Crop Testing Plan” is the re- 
sult of the vision of Mr. A. L. Searle, 
President of the Searle Grain Com- 
pany, who, in 1929, considerea that 
those who handled the farmers’ pro- 
ducts could do much to assist in the 
improvement of the quality of such 
products, hence in the enhancement 
of the income of the farmer. Con-

minion CéPrealist, resulted'th the “Cfop 
testing Plan’ which this year has‘ 
beén carried out by. the British Ameri- 
ca. National, Northern, Midland and 
Pacific and the Searle Elevator Com- 
panies, together with ‘the Kind’ help 
and assistance of officials from the 


| Dominion’ Beed, Branch, the Experi- 


mental Farms, Universities, Provin- |. 
cial Department of Agriculture, and 
the Canadian Seed Growers’ Associa- 
tion, all of whom have made valuable 
contributions to the work by analyz- 
ing accurately the many thousands of 
samples ‘growing in the plots. 

During. ‘the ‘course of the Regina 
Grain Conference last year the ‘“‘Crop 
Testing Plan’ was viewed in opera- 
tion at Rouleau with much enthusi- 
astic approval by many distinguished 
agriculturists, ‘among them Sir John 
Russell, Director of the Experimental 
Station; Rothampstead, England) and 
Sir Albert Humphries, who repfresent- 
ed the British Millers’ Association. 
Sir Albert Humphries stated at the 
meeting that “the knowledge that 
such a method of crop improvement 
as ‘the’ “Crop Testing Plan” was m 
operation in Western Canada would 
give added confidence to the British 
Millers in their belief that the quality 
of Canadian wheat would be not on- 
ly maintained but no doubt increased 
in the future.” 

The National Committee on Agri- 
culture services, after having studied 
the “Crop Testing Plan’, and having 
observed the results attained, have | 
thought so highly of it that they have 
officially sponsored the plan and have 
given it every encouragement and as- 
sistance, which same encouragement 
and assistance, they have officially | 
stated, they are ready to give to any 
and all who are prepared to devote 
time and energy in assisting towards: 
the worthwhile object of the improve- 
ment of the quality of the agricultural 
products of Canada. \

And the most notable feature of his

colossal effort that is being made. | 
Britain and certain of the sterling |

vival, the extent and nature of whlen |

But by picking on these by no

ting to mention that the effect of

While a conclusive estimate of the 
1934 wheat crop will not be possible | 
for some time yet, there is sufficient 
information in the hands of the de- 
partment to establish fairly definitely 
that the average wheat yield over fhe) 
seeded area of the province will be 
considerably below the average for 
the past ten years, namely, 17 bushels 
per acre. 

The estimate of the area seeded to 
wheat in Alberta this year is placed 
by the Dominion Bureau of Siatistics 
at 7,501,000 acres, compared with 
7,898,000 acres in 1933, and 8,201,000 
acres in 1932. 

A number of factors combined dur- 
ing the season to reduce what gave 
early promise of being a large crop 


In southern, south-eastern and east- 


pers were strong deteriorating fac- 
tors. In the southern districts, how- 
ever, on the whole, a fairly large vol- 
ume of wheat has been produced. The 
best crops are being found in the 
areas along the international border, 
from Cardston to Lethbridge and 
through to Medicine Hat, south of the 
C.P.R. Crow line. Some surprisingly 
heavy individual yields are being re- 
ported from this territory. Along the 
western side of the province north w 
Calgary there are also some very good 
crops. The total volume of wheat on 
the Lethbridge division of the C.P.R. 
which extends from Dunmore on the 
east to Crow’s Nest on the west and 
north of Okotoks, will be fairly sub- 
stantial and of generally high quality. 

In the south-eastern district, east of 
Drumheller, north of the South Sask- 
atchewan river and south from Stett- 
ler and Coronation, crops generally 
have again been largely a failure and 
the total yield of all grains will be 


% | Very low. 


In the central area of the province, 
from Ponoka south to Olds, and from 
the mountains east to the Saskatche- 
wan boundary, an unusually dry seas- 
on has been experienced. Crops of all 
kinds have failed to fill to the extent 
first anticipated and the total yield 
of wheat and other grains will be be- 
low normal! in this territory, which is 
usually productive of good crops. 
There is also a shortage of feed in 
many localities in this area. 

In the north central area which 
centres upon Edmonton, in which 
heavy yields of all grains have been 
anticipated, frost, registered on the 
night of August 22, did damage to 
uncut and unripe crops. The area 
affected was from Athabasca on the 
north to below Red Deer on the south 
and from some miles west of the

best ever taken off in that country.

The following letter has been re-

Municipalities to the east, and any 
who can help in this way might kind-

Government of the Province of 
Saskatchewan, 
Department of Agriculture, 


Regina,.. .. 
August 22nd, 1934. 


Dear Sir: 
The need of fodder for live stocn 


| in southern municipalities is so eae | 


that the needs can be met only with 
the use of large quantities of straw. 

I am directed by my Minister, Hon. 
Mr. Taggart, to make a special ap- 
peal to all municipalities where there 
is a reasonably good crop, to pass 
a bylaw prohibiting the burning of 
straw until tne needs of southern 
municipalities have been met. 

We would like to be able to have | 
the southern municipalities organize 
parties to bale your straw from the 
threshing machines and get it loaded 
on cars while it is still dry before any 
danger of damage occurs. Where 
there is enough for local needs and a 
surplus as well, we would hope that 
the farmers who do not need this 
straw would allow southern munici- 
palities to come in and bale it witu- 
out being charged for the straw in the 
stack. The expense of another year 
of relief for so large an area will be 
tremendous and great hardship can 
only be avoided by the generous co- 
operation of those who are able to be 
of some assistance to fellow farmers 
who have had so many years of grief 
and disappoimtment. 

I am confident that we can count 
on your co-operation in this respect 
and will be obliged indeed if you will 
write me to that effect, or better send 
me a night lettergram collect in order 
that no time may be lost in getting 
this movement under way. Thanking 
you in advance. 


Yours faithfully, 
F. H. AULD, 
Deputy Minister 


‘that by autumn there will be a general 
reaction. 

It is now becoming clear to every- 
body that optimism, like pariotism, 
is not enough. Faith may move 
mountains, but it does not operate in 
accordance with the known principle 
of causation. Dynamite, in the hands 
of humans, is probably the more ef- 
fective force of the two. 

That is, apparently, Presiden 
Roosevelt’s view, for he is trying to 
blow his way through the mountains 
of depression with high-financial ex- 
plosives, and running some risk of 
blowing himself up as well. 


But the unpleasant truth emerges 
that the depression still remains, that 
it does not yield before any of the 
measures our conjoined experience 
and ingenuity can devise; cheap mon- 
ey, tariffs and quotas, depreciation of 
currency, appreciation of price levels 

-all are reemingly useless in the pre- 
sent emergency, and it is impossible 
in the face of such evidence of fail- 
ure and futility to escape the ques- 
tion: IS DOUGLAS RIGHT? 


To Again Resume 
Travelling Clinics 


Work of travelling clinics is to be 
resumed in this province, after a lapse 
of two years, announces Hon. Geo. 
Hoadley, minister of health. Under 
the direction of the department of 
health, the work is being organized 
for a period of two months. The 
clinic will serve various remote dis- 
tricts, in some of which the only 
health assistance is that provided by 
a district nurse. The clinic will deal 
with many ordinary cases that develop 
during the year, including tonsil 
troubles, adenoids and minor surgery.

‘How should I know? It is enough

Barry let himself in quietly. Anne

He turned toward the door blindly. 

There was the slight sound of its 
opening. Anne stood there staring at 
him. 

“Oh—Barry!” She said it breath- 
lessly. “You startled me.” 

His eyes swept over her swiftly, 
suspiciously, and dropped to the slim 
perfection of her slippers. On the side

“Within the last half hour I have 
had to listen to a sickening story that 
you were meeting somebody's chauf-

She felt suddenly sick and tired. 
Barry’s mother must have seen her 
and carried the story to him in bitter 
triumph. Who else hated her enough 
to do that? She wanted to tell him 
the whole hateful story, but she must 
not. 

“Somebody must have been willing 
to carry tales about me to have hur-

went on bitterly. “And whether I was 
there or not, I won't talk about it! I 
won't! I'll say things that we’ll both 
be sorry for.” Her hands went up to 
her throbbing temples. They really 
did throb now. “Ring for Bertha, 
and stay until she comes.”

“Alibi!” Cleo said under her breath.

It was cldse to midnight when Ken-

chateau which housed the Pendleton

he was met by a message that Cleo 
wanted to see him., Kennedy was half 
sulky about it. Some deviltry, or he 
missed his guess. 

Cleo received. him in the Chinese 
room. 

“T’m thinking of getting a new car, 
Kennedy. Do you know anything a- 
bout racing cars?’ 

“A little.” Kennedy’s eyes narrowed 
slightly. He hesitated, and the de- 
sire to show that he had not always 
been at an employee’s beck and call 
was too much for him. “I know their 
points pretty well,” he added careless- 
ly. “I’ve driven my own now and 
therr.”” 

“Really?” Cleo smiled encourag- 
ingly. That was before you —er— 
gave up the Forty-Ninth Street 
house, wasn’t it?” 

All the lines of Kennedy's face 
sharpened. 

“About that time,” he said briefly. 
“So you've been looking up my re- 
cord?” 

“It wasn’t necessary, 
You’re quite well known.” 

He stared back at her suspicious 
and half, truculent. ‘“Well,, you know, 
I didn’t try to get the job under an 
assumed name, anyway.” 

“Oh yes, I’m perfectly satisfied, 
Kennedy.. But of course I know that 
a man with your experience isn’t tak- 
ing a chauffeur’s position except for 
some special reason. Does John Gage 
know that you are in Granleigh?” 

It must have been a sharp jolt for 
Kennedy, but this time his face—the 
gambler’s face, after all —-was abso- 
lutely expressionless. 

“That’s too deep for me,” he an- 
swered indifferently. “If you mear 
the big fellow, I don’t know what he 
knows. I’ve never met him.” 


“Not even that night last May 
when this happened?” Cleo’s hanc 
rested for a moment against the filmy 
turquoise of her gown, just below her 
heart. 

“You've had a busy day,” he said 
dryly. 

“Things have a habit of coming my 
way, Kennedy. And I know you went

tention of staying on here as chauf- 
feur. You're here for money, Ken- 
nedy, big money. I’m afraid the 
courts would call it blackmail.” 

Kennedy listened, outwardly un- 
moved but taking lively account of 
this new situation. 

“What’s your game?” he asked 
bluntly. 

“I'm not playing, Kennedy.” Ken- 
nedy took the hint. 

“My error.” He temporized astute- 
ly. “But I got the idea that you want- 
ed me to do something for you.” 

“Perhaps you could.” She con- 
sidered him thoughtfully. “There is 
someone in Granleigh whose presence 
is going to bring danger and unhap- 
piness to some close friends of mine. 
Some day there will be a scandal and 
she will be forced to leave in dis- 
grace. It would be better for every- 
body concerned if she went away 
quietly before her—past became 
known.” 

“You want me to get Duane’s wife 
out of the way—” 

He had an unpleasant way of strip- 
ping facts naked and making her look 
at them. 

“I wish her to go away. Alone.”

of the Canadian Corps, held in To-

centennial celebration, the Dominion 
Command of the Canadian Legion 
now is planning a pilgrimage to the 
battlefield of Vimy Ridge for 1936. 

The pilgrimage will fit in with the 
plans of the Canadian Government 
for the unveiling at Vimy of a nation- 
al monument now approaching com- 
pletion. The Vimy memorial is the 
eighth and last in Canada’s chain of 
monuments on the. battlefields of 
Europe. It is the most majestic of 
all, its graceful “-eblumns ‘mounting 
Hill 145 and domijiating the whole of 
the ridge which the: Cattadian army 
stormed on April 9,-1917. The seven 
other memorials, from north to soutn, 
are at Passchendaele, St. Julien, Vimy, 
Dury Crossroads, Bourlon Wood, 
urcelette and Le Quesnel. 
In due courge the Legion will form 
a national committee to take in hand 
arrangements for the pilgrimage.

2. WHY YOU SHOULD START A CLUB 


GKEET was originally designed and | season, and then the gun must 
intended to give a pleasing and Vi ate ot be put away until the 
informal variety of practice for field | following year. In the intervening 


shooting by means of clay targets and 
traps, but owing to its unforeseen and 
consistent popu rity, it has gradually 
developed until now it has become an 
established sport in itself. Men and 
women play it regularly who never 
go into the field, and find it sufficient. 

‘oday, there are Skeet leagues and 
associations and championship shoots, 
and all this must be on account of a 
very definite cause. What is it that 
has made Skeet so popular with all 
classes and types of people? Why are 
there already some six hundred clubs 
in existence, with more constantly 
being formed? 

It is very hard to give any kind of 
comprehensive answer to so large a 
question in a short article. "The be 
answer of all is, ‘‘Try it for yourself, 
and then you will see.’ But until 
you have a chance of trying your hand 
at it, here are one or two points to 
think over. 

First, it is quite obvious that every 
form of ‘sport has some special attrac- 
tion of its own, and by reason of this 
holds its following of ‘‘fans."" But it 
is also true that many sports are 
accompanied by handicaps that re- 
strict hundreds of enthusiasts from 
takingactive part. Golf, fori a 
and polo. Football, handball, squash 
etc., call for good muscular develop- 
ment, and so on, down the line. 
Moreover, almost every existing form 
»f outdoor sport is restricted to a few 
months each year. Game shooting, 
for instance, is a matter of a short 


months, time hangs heavily and you 
get hopelessly out of practice. 

Skeet is really unique in that way. 
It isa year-round game. Novices with 
the gun need not fear repeating their 
initial mistakes ‘‘at the opening of the 
season,” for they may have daily 
practice, under field conditions, the 
whole year long. And the old-timers 
are provided with shooting practice 
that is as swift (often more so) and 
varied as any form of upland game 
shooting, during the tedious closed 
seasons. 

Secondly, Skeet. is a sport for 
everyone. When you come to con- 
sider a list of possible members for 
ta club, you need not be deterred 

rom asking anyone to join by con- 
siderations of age, sex, or bank 
balance (plus or minus). It is a real 
family game: father and mother— 
or grandfather and grandmother, for 
that matter—are no more excluded 
from its thrills than are the youngsters, 
And it is inexpensive, Little equi 
ment is required, and may be bought 
for less than $100.00, if necessary. 
The records of the National Skeet 
Shooting Association recently pub- 
peniot some interesting facts. An 

nasaren jacees repeatedly breaks 
Pailin ay Hs irds in a row out of 
twenty-five, and a boy of fifteen is the

Here is a thrilling, healthy, inexpen- 
sive, outdoor rt for the whole year 
round—and it pha fun!
